109125 2002-12-26 09:15:00 There is something called "Corkboard" Its a bit like a screensaver, with all sorts of interesting bits and bobs. Search on Google for it. Its free.

Another thing you could consider is a ball-point pen and diary.

109128 2002-12-26 10:10:00 Outlook is a Calendar and Time Managerment Feature found as part of the office suite.

www.mycorkboard.com/ this is the link for Corkboard mentioned in a earlier reply.

Try a search at tucows as well. They might have a free or shareware version of something to meet your needs.

Or you could try Sticky Notes www.tech-pro.co.uk

There is a small free no ads program called prorem at
www.download.com that will do the trick. you set the reminders, and it
pops up to tell you when the time comes

Cheers,

If your running a version of Linux there should be an overwelming list of possibilitys for personal time management.

Personally i find a $10 diary does me for the year!

109132 2002-12-27 13:11:00 If you don't like what you may have found I actually created a program that would pop up each time you booted with any alerts. If you want it post your spam box email address appropiately altered so that you don't receive any more spam but I will know. mikebartnz (21)
